and yes, highlighter creates Highlight events (kind 9802) which are compatible with quite a few clients and comments

highlighter doesn't have servers; everything you do on highlighter is stored on relays in standardized ways that other clients support

(except for the stuff that I created in highlighter that are still not supported by other clients, like private long forms)

Thank you, that's helpful! Once I've created a relay list, is there a way to browse the notes that are published to those relays?

I'm not entirely sure how to "find" content to begin highlighting. O

r maybe I'm going about this the wrong way..?

Or, to begin highlighting, do I input an external (non-nostr) address or piece of content, and then the highlights function as new nostr events? (Re: your reference to fiatjaf's article, a minute ago)

yeah, you can input a URL or a nostr-specific event; I wanted to highlight some stuff on fiatjaf's post so I just entered his URL

https://highlighter.com/web

yeah, discovery right now within highlighter kinda sucks; I need to do a further push on that

right now you would bring the content you are interested in saving/highlighting/reasoning about into highlighter

but I have a lot of stuff coming that should help with this

As you said - it's in alpha ;)

I'll poke around some more. Are there content sources that you recommend? I'm assuming anything behind a paywall wouldn't work...

anything behind a paywall wouldn't; but if you install the chrome extension, if you access the paywall you'll be able to highlight from it 😉

Which chrome extension are you referring to? Is there one for Highlighter 🤯

There is an extension for #[4]​ 😉

I’m AFK, I’ll drop the URL here when I’m at the computer

Thanks! I did a search on Chrome extensions but no luck

Thanks! Lmk when you have a chance; I'd love to give it a shot!
